Doesn't look too bad, depending what the engine issues are. Has a tow bar so you could stick a bike rack on it pretty easily. Would be good to enquire what he has towed with it and how often. Rather boring colors.

[MBZ] What could go wrong??

Gym buddy has a 2014 Audi A5 coupe. Timing belt broke, engine toasted. He knows I work on my own cars, offered to pay me to do an engine swap. It’s always been my policy to not work on other people’s cars but he offered to source the engine and pay for my time. How hard could it be?

[MBZ] E500 slammed on front left

You may recall I had some trouble with the air suspension on the 2004 E500 last summer, turned out that the plastic line from the compressor to the manifold block had popped out of its fitting. I bought some new parts but by the time they arrived I had already put the old line back in place and

On my 2004 W211 E500, when the command lighting goes into "night" mode, the climate control display becomes way too dim. It's pretty much impossible to read unless it's actually dark outside. Since the "night" mode activates well before actual dark, this is annoying if I want to change
